President Bush leaves office in late January, 2009.
3 years more of the adults being in charge.
Cool.
Not any more.
We should have let Hitler take out the Soviet Union before we crushed him, but the communists within our own government had other ideas..
Just as they do today.
Those who are cackling over Hamas' victory are the most ignorant of those in the debate. First, this is the dying gasp of such moves. The Palestinians are having their first opportunity to vote, really, and they are behaving like little kids--they want to show how big and tough they are.
That attitude will mellow as they realize they have to get along with others.
The point isn't that all democracies are great. The point is democracies can deal with each other, and are less likely to go to war with each other. A world of democracies is the free person's alternative to Marx's nightmare.
It's not preemptive when you go to war against someone who has routinely been firing missiles at your country's pilots.
An extension of the Bush Doctrine?
I don't listen to the post speech analysis, not even on Fox. They all talk from predictable points of view and often miss the real meat of a Bush presentation.
No, I prefer to wait and read what real people, real informed conservatives have to say.
In a three minute read Tom Adkins has nailed it. I had the same feelings about the speech. Once again this site is the best place to get a true reading of conservatives and what they are thinking. Great job Tom.
